About this study

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 4-arm parallel group study to evaluate the tolerability and efficacy of each of three dose levels of ADS-5102 oral capsules, an extended release formulation of amantadine, dosed once daily for the treatment of levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) in subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD). The novel pharmacokinetic profile of ADS-5102 is expected to achieve i) higher amantadine plasma concentrations during daytime hours when dyskinesia as well as motor and non-motor symptoms of PD are most problematic, ii) low amantadine plasma concentrations overnight, which may reduce the sleep disturbances and vivid dreams occasionally associated with amantadine, and iii) a reduced initial rate of rise in plasma concentration, which is expected to improve overall tolerability of amantadine.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS) Total Score From Baseline to Week 8

    The UDysRS is a dyskinesia rating scale from 0-104, and it evaluates involuntary movements associated with PD. A higher score indicates more severe PD. The last observation carried forward (LOCF) method was used for analysis. Participants were summarized according to the actual treatment received.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 8

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change in the Fatigue Severity Score (FSS) From Baseline to Week 8

    The FSS is a 9-item self-reported scale, rating subject experience of fatigue during the previous 7 days. The total score, on a scale from 1-7, is represented by the mean of all answered items. The higher the score, the greater the fatigue severity.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 8

  2. Change in Total Objective Score (III, IV) of the UDysRS From Baseline to Week 8

    UDysRS Part III measures objective impairment (dyskinesia severity, anatomic distribution, and type, based on 4 observed activities); and Part IV measures objective disability based on Part III activities. The scores for the 2 Parts combined range from 0-44; a higher score represents more severe dyskinesia.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 8

  3. Change in ON Time Without Troublesome Dyskinesia (ON Without Dyskinesia Plus ON With Non-troublesome Dyskinesia) From Baseline to Week 8; Based on a Standardized PD Home Diary

    A PD home diary was used to score 5 different conditions in 30-minute time intervals: ASLEEP, OFF, ON (ie, had adequate control of PD symptoms) without dyskinesia, ON with non-troublesome dyskinesia, and ON with troublesome dyskinesia. The results were based on 2 consecutive 24-hour diaries taken prior to the day of randomization and prior to the Week 8 visit.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 8

  4. Change in Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Combined Scores (Parts I, II, III) From Baseline to Week 8

    The MDS-UPDRS Parts I, II, and III examined non-motor experiences of daily living, motor experiences of daily living, and motor examination, respectively. Each part had sub scales ranging from normal = 0 to severe = 4.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 8

  5. Clinician's Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) in Overall PD Symptoms From Baseline to Week 8

    The CGI-C consisted of a single question that assessed the investigator's global impression of the subject's change from Baseline in overall PD symptoms, including but not limited to LID. The CGI-C required that the investigator rate the extent to which the subject's PD had improved or worsened (from marked worsening to marked improvement).

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing ADS-5102 (extended release amantadine HCl) in people with Dyskinesia and Levodopa Induced Dyskinesia, run by Adamas Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 33 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 33 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Nov 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS) Total Score From Baseline to Week 8 (time frame: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 8). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Dec 2017.
